Ultimate protective coating

ToughGuard-Aero protects aircraft paint against the buildup of harmful environmental elements such as rain erosion, UV damage, soot and carbon buildup, pollution, volcanic ash, hydraulic fluids and bird/insect residues. Because the paint is protected against harmful environmental factors the lifetime of the paint is extended by up to 50% of the normal paint life expectation.

Reduced labor costs

According to Boeing, surface coatings have been observed to reduce washing frequency requirements for commercial airplanes, with a typical improvement from a 60-day to a 240-day cycle. Because of our formulation, a properly protected aircraft will see a reduction in the amount of time required to maintain a clean appearance thereby reducing labor costs.

Reduced Drag

Boeing research shows the most effective means of reducing drag is by maintaining an aerodynamically clean airplane. The resulting reduction in dirt and insect adhesion could result in reduced excrescence drag. Increased fuel efficiency is a net result of maintaining clean aircraft.
